Enchanted War Gauntlet DCC Large Glove Remix

This is a remix of WaterKangaroo's take on Luciano Fleitas' artwork of the Enchanted War Gauntlet of the Exhalted Grull from the Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook book cover.  

 This remix resizes many parts to work with a large size glove and extend the bracer so that the glove does not show at the end of the bracer.  

I am going to try and list all materials and tools I used to create this to make it easier for any Donut Holes that wants to try to make this after me.  Please leave comments or DM me if you have questions.  I have included both the original files with a longer final bracer that will work with a medium glove and my resized files that I used for my large size gloves as WaterKangaroo originally made it for medium gloves.

I am going to try and make more revisions to the bracer pieces to add more spikes as latest artwork seems to add more spikes to the glove, but these should be easily replaceable with the screw rivets later.

Construction:

Please use a metallic Sharpie marker to mark all your parts before you remove them off the build plate. Finger parts go:

Distal Phalange

Distal Joint

Middle Phalange

Proximal Joint

Proximal Phalange

Pinky finger has it's own joint files, the three middle fingers use the same joint files.  The thumb stops after the middle phalange and goes to the thumb guard.

I sanded and painted all my parts before starting construction, I used the texture plate on the bracer parts and didn't really mind that texture, so didn't sand any parts with textured surfaces.  

I started construction by bending the 4 bracer pieces, creases go inside the bracer parts.  I have enough clips on the build plate to epoxy 2 bracers pieces at once.  I used a small swipe of the gorilla glue epoxy above in the creases of the bracer parts to hold the bend.

Next I moved on to making the fingers.  I riveted all the finger parts together on to piece of leather from the black suede trim piece, you could use scrap leather from the left glove if you so choose.  Using the provided punch with the 6mm x 8mm rivets on the leather makes things easy.  I left out the end most rivet on each section, but did punch the hole. 

 I measured and marked on the glove using the constructed fingers to find out where to punch rivet holes in the glove.  One finger at a time starting from the pinky side, I would then put in the rivet for the tips of the fingers as that was the most painful to place.  I would then use a light application of leather glue on the suede trim piece of the finger armor before riveting the back of the hand rivet.  I would then quickly stick my hand in the glove and apply pressure to make sure the leather glue would adhere properly to the glove.  This can be very fast acting, so practice how to do this before gluing.  This glue works well as I wore it all weekend at a con and didn't get any separation.  This also means its most likely difficult to remove, so be careful when applying finger armor sections.
 

For the bracer section, I used the 4.8mm punch for the M5x6mm screw rivets.  I started with the spiked portion and got the front holes marked and punched those out first.  From there I could use the bracer sections to make my measurements and used the seams of the glove as a guide all the way back with the exception of the final holes.  The final holes in the last bracer section are a bit higher above the seam, but you can use the last bent piece as a guide to see how much higher to punch those holes from the seam of the glove.  Here are some pics of both sides of my glove seams and punches.
